More Cubist Still Life Drawings

Over the last few years I've had a renewed interest in Cubism. My focus has been in still life drawing more than painting although I have also done some cubist paintings too. Here are a couple of recent drawings in charcoal and ink.

Cubist Still Life I, 2010, Charcoal and collage on paper.

Cubist Still Life II, 2010, Ink and collage on paper.

Some New Drawings

The Twin Towers collages are an ongoing project. At this point I have completed twenty seven. I'll post the next ten when they are complete. I dug up some drawings from the past year and completed several new ones recently. Last Fall I took my Life Drawing class to the Cantor Museum at Stanford. We drew from Rodin's sculptures. Here's a drawing of Rodin's sculpture of Adam.

Here's a mixed media figure from this year.

I have been working on a series of collage pieces since last Fall. The series is called Twin Towers. I have been thinking about making work somehow based on my thoughts about the towers and 9-11. Really started out as a formal exploration of the idea and is evolving throughout the process.
